Man deliberately drowns his two severely autistic sons by driving car off Los Angeles pier to claim $6 million insurance money
A man from California was charged with insurance fraud after he deliberately drowned his two autistic sons by driving his car off a pier in the state. Reports state that the 44-year-old father of the two boys killed them so that he could cash in on a $6 million insurance policy, according to prosecutors.
The accused, identified as Ali Elmezayen, reportedly came up with the sick plan two years before he sent his Honda crashing into the Port of Los Angeles on April 9, 2015, the New York Post reported.
FBI agent Matthre Parker, in an affidavit supporting the accused's arrest, last week wrote: "Witnesses heard the tires of the car screech loudly and saw the car accelerate before it flew off the edge of the wharf, crash into the water and immediately sink."
